How likely are you to recommend Dr. Lam?
Without warning, a floater and flashes of light developed in one of eyes. I felt this was the beginnings of a retina detachment, so I called Houston Retina Associates immediately to see if I could be seen. Dr. Alappatt, my regular and great Ophthalmologist, was not in the office that day. Nurse Debra said Dr. Lam, another great Ophthalmologist with this practice could see me that afternoon. Dr. Lam was very comforting, engaging, kind, and professional and assessed my situation with precise efficiency! He explained to me his diagnosis of a retina tear and treatment. He immediately scheduled a retinal laser surgery procedure to repair the tear(s) preventing a complete retinal detachment that was performed in his office that day! The procedure was painless, and my anxiety was reduced significantly because Dr. Lam was very calm, assuring, and stayed engaged with me throughout the procedure. I left the office feeling so relieved that I had escaped a complete retinal detachment!
